Energy-saving control strategy for ultra-dense network base stations
To reduce the extra power consumption due to frequent sleep mode switching of base stations, a sleep mode switching decision algorithm is proposed. The algorithm reduces
(1) Energy-saving reward: after choosing a shallower sleep strategy for a base station, the system may save more energy if a deeper sleep mode can be chosen, and in this paper, the standardized energy-saving metrics are defined as (18) R i e = E S M = 0 E S M = i E S M = 0 E S M = 3
When there is little or no communication activity, base stations typically consume more than 80% of their peak power consumption, leading to significant energy waste . This energy waste not only increases operational costs, but also burdens the environment, which is contrary to global sustainability goals .
The goal of this paper is to find a base station sleep strategy in UDN systems that reduces the total system energy consumption while being able to guarantee QoS.
In response to the problem of high network energy consumption caused by the dense deployment of SBS, the base station dormancy technique is seen as an effective solution, as it does not require changes to the current network architecture and is relatively simple to implement. This technique was first proposed in the IEEE 802.11b protocol .
